I am in the market for a new monitor. Currently have:
HannsG 19" monitor
7600GT 256MB video card
Athlon 64 4000+ San Diego 2.4 GHz CPU
I am also in the process of building a new computer(components on order) consisting of an E8400 CPU and 8800GTS G92 512MB video card.
I ran across an LG W2252TQTF 22" monitor on sale, and want to get it before it goes off sale. I have 2 weeks to return the monitor to the store for dead pixels, etc. That is part of the reason I am buying it at a local store as well. My question is:
Will there be any adverse effects to hooking this new 22" monitor up to my current 7600GT video card for a while until I get new system built? I know I probably will not be able to run it at the recommended resolution(1680x1050), but I want to test it out ASAP for dead pixels. Or should I just wait? I just do not want to damage the monitor or card. Any help/suggestions as to whether or not to do this would be greatly appreciated. Thank You!
